This module was selected as the 2005 Classics Award Winner by the MERLOT Teacher Education Editorial Board for its innovative and best practices approach to cross-curricular investigation, discovery, and reflection for K-university learners. Since 1998, the Paper Project has been exploring the structure and beauty of paper. The project chronicles handmade and mouldmade paper through images produced by scanning electron microscopy and a scanning-laser confocal microscope. The content blends the world of art and science. Teaching standards addressed include K-8 visual arts, technology, and science. It reveals how science, art, and technology are entwined and would be appropriate material for cross-disciplinary integrated teaching by faculty who team teach at the middle school level. The development of this site began with a simple scientific question - What can modern microscopy tell us about paper? - and it has grown in many different directions from that point. Materials include written comparisons of old and new technology (the history of microsopes, the history of paper), step-by-step instructions for making paper, and microscopic images of paper with depth resolution or at various magnifications displayed side-by-side for easy comparison (powers of 10: 100x and 1000x). Students can use 3-D glasses to enjoy part of this site.

This site has been created to show students how cells work. It reviews the functions of the cell organelles. This web site focuses on the structure and function of the cell membrane. Students will learn how the organelles interact with each other to keep the cell alive. This web site adds to the knowledge of most middle school students about organelles and expands to how the cell works as a whole. Scientists who study this area are known as cell physiologists. Physiology is the study of the function of living things.

People have misconceptions about evolution. Some are simple misunderstandings; ideas that develop in the course of learning about evolution, possibly from school experiences and/or from the media. Other misconceptions may stem from purposeful attempts to interfere with the teaching of evolution. Science teachers must learn to treat all student questions with respect and initially to accept each question as the reflection of a legitimate desire to learn. However, some questions may well be designed to disrupt the learning process. We need to deal with intentionally disruptive questions in ways that are a bit different from legitimate inquiry. And it is important that we learn to distinguish between the two. This web site explains how to teach evolution in the classroom, with concepts, lesson plans and teaching philosophy about teaching evolution. It also provides a glossary and a guide to identifying and dealing with potential obstacles to the teaching of evolution and provides links to readings, websites, and position statements. The site was created by the University of California Museum of Paleontology with support provided by the National Science Foundation and the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.

LabWrite guides students through the entire lab experience. The resources are divided into four parts that are structured around the lab process. PreLab: An opportunity to actually understand what the lab is all about before it starts. InLab: How to set up an experiment, take notes on protocol and instrumentation, organize and record data, and how to display data in meaningful tables and graphs. Useful information and resources including graphing aids, examples of lab reports that illustrate how the parts of the report are written and arranged, and a glossary of terms such as control, precision, and accuracy. PostLab: Offers a systematic approach for reflecting, organizing, and communicating the relationship between ideas and the evidence collected. PostLab brings the PreLab and InLab experiences together to help stuidents, step by step, create a complete and effective lab report. LabCheck: Finally, in the LabCheck section, LabWrite gives students an opportunity to review the work. LabCheck can also help students interpret their grade. LabWrite is based on a "backwards" approach to writing a lab report.
